Nature Made Evening Primrose Oil is recommended for women's health and emotional well-being. Evening primrose oil (oenothera biennis) is used to treat premenstrual conditions such as irritability, breast tenderness, and bloating. Researchers suggest that a minimum of 3 percent of the daily caloric intake of healthy adults should be derived from essential fatty acids such as cis-linoleic acid and gamma-linolenic acid, which perform many vital functions and are necessary for proper cellular metabolism. Named evening primrose because its light yellow flowers open at dusk, this wildflower grows in North America and Europe. Although the plant has long been used for medicinal purposes, the use of its seed oil is relatively recent.
